Parental use of structure-based and autonomy support feeding practices with children with avid eating behaviour: an Ecological Momentary Assessment study
Together, our findings show that parental mood, feeding goals and context are momentary predictors of parents' use of noncoercive feeding practices to manage children's avid eating behaviour. Further work is needed to examine whether supporting parents to prioritise health-related goals at mealtimes increases the use of adaptive, noncoercive feeding practices.
